DISPENSARY/REPEAT PRESCRIPTIONS
Opening Times: Monday, Thursday and Friday 8.30am to 6.00pm Tuesday and Wednesday 8.30am to 7.00pm
We are a dispensing practice which means that if you live more than one mile from a chemist, we can dispense your medication for you. In general, this will mean you will live in one of the surrounding villages. If you are a temporary resident, we can also dispense for you.
Please note we now have a collection point at Great Horkesley Village Store and also a home delivery service for housebound patients.
If you are on long term treatment, the doctor may agree to supply some of your repeat prescriptions without seeing you. You will receive a computer printed slip showing details of your medication. Tick the items required and post, email, fax or put it in the black ‘Repeat Prescriptions’ box at the surgery. If you have multiple sheets, please ensure they are attached together. In the interests of accuracy and safety we DO NOT accept requests over the telephone. Please allow two working days for the preparation and signing of your prescription before collecting either the prescription or your medicine. If you wish us to post your prescription, please attach a stamped, addressed envelope.
Dispensers are also trained to check that patients are able to take their medicines efficiently and reduce waste. For further details, please speak to the dispenser.
